That fact that all the bonus material on DVDs (documentaries, audio commentaries, story board drawings etc) was hardly appreciated at the time until it went away in the Netflix era is something that also reminds me of movie awards. Many film classics were only really appreciated years later, and we are left to wonder why they didn't won an Academy Award at the time while some other totally unremarkable movie took it instead. I think it's this: Often we assume that certain things (e.g. certain types of movies, DVD extras) just will be as good or better in the future, and often they do, but if they unexpectedly get worse, we realize that we did hit a high water mark in the past without noticing at the time.
